Erik Tollstedt Comments: I want an image of Ernest Hemingway. He should be sitting on a purple couch in outer space. There should be papers flying away from his lap. Also, I’d like to see Ernest Hemingway’s head explode. But not in the normal way. It should explode into several other heads, one of them a sleeping hispanic man, and the other Emperor Ming. And have some sort of purple beam shoot out of his brain too. Yeah, that will convey “creative genius” like nothing else.

This guy just dropped a steaming load of bad covers on GSS Admin, so the boss told me to make this “JuanPaul Week”. Register your complaints using the handy “submit” button above. Plus, send in at least four high-quality losers and next week may be all yours! Enjoy! — Tag

JuanPaul Comments: Try pronouncing the author’s last name with a thick and exaggerated Russian accent. It’s good fun.
